MFCO251 Television Studio Production

An introduction to the practical elements of studio-based television production.

This paper applies film theory to continuing development of practical skills within
the studio. By completing this paper, students communicate ideas and information through
filmmaking as well as develop critical and creative thinking in that context. Students
will become conversant with all elements of the studio.

The primary assessed
tasks are two creative projects and related analytical and critical written assignments.
These non-fiction and fiction short films are created in groups acting as film 'crews'.
Crews employ informed thinking along with the tools of filmmaking, sound design, visual
composition, lighting, both single and multi-camera cinematography, script development,
editing, and location filming to realise their collective, and creative, vision.
